This shear die employs a high-torque servo motor and helical gear reducer to drive the rack and pinion gearing. Standard features of the system include a pivoting entrance support transfer table, self-centering edge guides, shock dampening controls, and wedge-type blade gap adjustment.
A special self-pivoting exit conveyor was provided to accommodate the +/- 48º range oscillation of the die, which is controlled by an Allan Bradley Control Logix PLC with Panelview touchscreen for job recipe set-up, diagnostics and troubleshooting. This COE Oscillating Shear Die can achieve line speeds of up to 300 FPM and hit rates of up to 60 SPM.
